Chapter 1539: Black, I Have to Hand It to You!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Black’s action stunned the host and the audience.
Everyone present looked at each other in shock for three full minutes.
To h.e.l.l with going to the bathroom! To h.e.l.l with stomach aches!
It’s not like you can relieve yourself on Star Web. Why didn’t you bring up your stomachache while battling Lu Shuang? How much of your time would it take up to accept one interview?
Suppose you accept an interview now after breaking two of the Radiance Federation’s records. In that case, the interview will be uploaded onto the Celestial Stairway’s video library along with the video of the battle. Anyone would want this interview to shoot themselves to fame. Yet, you don’t want it and fled after using such a strange reason! You never change, Black!
!!
When Black turned the tables, the host noticed the two commentators’ awkwardness. As such, he stepped in to distract the audience.
When Black entered the ranking for G.o.d-cla.s.s and his age was exposed, everyone was shocked.
But when the group regained their senses, the attention returned to Black and Lu Shuang’s battle.
Questions of doubt rose from the Starlight Dueling Ground.
[This can’t be right. What is the eight-tailed cat that appeared behind Black? Is it a fey?]
[Why is Black’s fey system so different compared to other spirit qi professionals?]
[Black is a healing-type spirit qi professional. But why haven’t we seen him use healing abilities?]
[What do you mean by Black not using healing abilities? Is something wrong with your head? When Black first started climbing the tower, he used healing abilities to heal his feys. Now, Black kills his opponents immediately. What’s the point of using healing abilities?]
[I was blinded by Black’s silver mask! It doesn’t look like an ordinary accessory!]
The suspicions from the crowd left the host and two commentators feeling awkward.
This is all your fault, Black! You left, but we don’t get to leave work!
However, they also had no clue what the image of the giant cat was.
There were many possibilities that could have led to this situation. The image could have been a fey, source-type lifeform, or even sacred source lifeform.
Since they were facing an audience made up of the entire Star Web, the host and commentators dared not make wild guesses. Otherwise, they could make laughingstocks of themselves and jeopardize their careers.
As for Black’s silver mask, the host and commentators had a.s.sumed that it was a normal accessory. But now, it was evident that this was not the case.
Star Web battles prohibited the use of weapons because the best method of combat was to use feys rather than swords.
However, one could bring a contracted weapon to Star Web and use it during a Celestial Stairway battle.
However, contracted weapons were made by Cla.s.s 5 Creation Masters from the corpses of sacred source lifeforms. They were so precious that they had never appeared in a battle on the Celestial Stairway.
Thus, Black’s mask had to be a type of fey.
All the present audience members started to discuss enthusiastically and left the Starlight Dueling Ground even before the battle officially ended.
The host and two commentators from Star Web could only wait awkwardly and ended up working for an additional hour.
There was no way the curious atmosphere present could be contained.
The video of the battle between Black and Lu Shuang was uploaded onto the Celestial Stairway’s video library.
The entire battle lasted less than three minutes.
Thus, those who had not bought tickets quickly watched the battle.
The entire Star Web did not take long to share the same sentiment as the audience at the Starlight Dueling Ground.
Black’s fans started to buzz again.
Many of the Star Web users who had attacked Black went to his official page to apologize.
Black’s official page not only regained its past hive of activity, but the numerous Star Web users who had gathered to talk about the battle caused the page to become even more popular than before.
Previously, Lu Shuang had planned on defeating Black and using the popularity to change her life.
However, her plan had failed, and Lu Shuang was crushed.
It took some time for her to recover from the immense disappointment.
But after she found out that Black had rejected being interviewed, she returned to her senses.
She immediately opened her live-streaming room.
Although she was a failure, the winner had left, and she could try to harness some of the residual popularity.
The entire Star Web was so emotionally charged that any percentage of the popularity would make a large impact.
Lu Shuang’s fan count doubled, and she immediately became the most popular combat host in the group of emperor-cla.s.s and below.
It was so popular that it was almost comparable with Sparrow Voice Loli G.o.ddess.
All the questions in the live stream were about Black. But Lu Shuang was enjoying the popularity so much that she did not care.
Still, despite being the one who fought against Black, Lu Shuang had no answers to these questions.
However, she would be turning the audience away if she did not answer the questions.
As such, she gave ambiguous answers.
When the audience asked, [Lu Shuang, do you think that the image of the eight-tailed cat that Lin Yuan defeated you with is a sacred source lifeform?]
She answered, “I’m hungry. I want a plate of stir-fried chicken.”
When the audience asked, [Lu Shuang, are you confident of defeating Black the next time you two battle?]
Lu Shuang replied, “Black was underhanded. He attacked me, an elder. He didn’t even give a warning before he attacked. I let him know before I attacked!”
When the audience asked, [Host, are you dumb? Do you see our questions? What kind of answers are you giving?]
She answered, “I’m hungry. I want a plate of stir-fried chicken.”
The large crowd soon started calling Lu Shuang ‘Puzzler’. The nickname quickly caught on.
Master Duan Li had been watching the entire event and felt that it was time for her to make her move.
She sent out a post on Black’s official page t.i.tled ‘A Cla.s.s 4 Creation Master’s Deduction About Black’s Cat Silhouette and Mask’.
